  • Rubber strings???

    Anybody played one of these? I'd like to hear what they sound like. Wierd, but kinda cool in a way.
    The Fender DeArmond Ashbory Bass and the Guild Ashbory Bass fretless electric bass have silicon rubber strings. Sounds more upright bass than bass guitar.

      I didn't even notice the MP3 clip on the site. They sound badass! I think I'll order one just for kicks. http://www.largesound.com/ashborytour/sound/brobob.mp3

            They do sound very good. I played one when they first came out when Guild was making them. I couldn't afford it at the time as I was a poor college grad student. I think it was 1986 or something, and they were badass at the time and $345 back then. Expensive! I'd get one now

            Tone is like Art: Your opinion is valid. Listen, learn, have fun, draw your own conclusions.

              I think it's perfect for a guitar player who wants to record bass tracks for his/her masterpiece hit songs
              I wish my hair-color was EDS :/
